Advanced Tablet Problems w/DJIGO app

I'm a newbie with only 3 hrs flight time and my tablet is driving me crazy.I bought a no data Samsung Tab A (GPS including GLONASS) dedicated for the UAV. One problem after another including ,installing the app 3 times and a reset on the tablet. The only way it ever works is to turn the controller and the aircraft on first, and cold boot to them. Otherwise it never sees the correct UAV. Thinks it is P4 or Inspire. When I do cold boot and get to camera mode finally, radar works, but maps doesn't most of the time. My Samsung Galaxy S6 phone works fine. I need suggestions on other tablets(I see mine is not on the list, but have friends that use them). Should I get a different tab or use the Litchhi app? I'n not a IOS fan.....yet lol. I spend more time getting connected than flying. Big buzz kill.Thanks in advance
